I use Snapbridge all the time with my Z6 and found it to be reliable mostly using Bluetooth. When the images are download to my phone, they are also sent to Google photos for permanent archiving. Simple one-step way to transfer to Google Photos without taking out the XQD card or plugging the camera to a computer.

I can control the camera using it as a remote viewfinder and shutter release; very handy if the camera is on a tripod and I cannot stay by the camera.


That will work but you do realize they are not full resolution I think they are only 2 mb. I would still put them on my pc or Mac to upload to the cloud.

I set the download to full resolution. You can choose either 2Mb or full res. Obviously it will take a little longer to download and the transfer to Google Photos, but it is worth the small time difference

Good to know because I do the same but use iCloud and Amazon photos. I will look in the settings and change it to full. I never thought of that before. But it is a good idea. I do shoot raw but I can always take the one I want to edit and put them on my Mac.

I have google photos linked to my phone to auto upload the files. Sometimes it can take a long time (a couple of hours) because there is a pause to transfer the files. Not sure why and when that happens I try to force the transfer by opening the images on both sides. Eventually it gets done.
